Saldini 50, Milano *DAVID LEGLAND* (Institut National de la Recherche Agronomique, UMR-LGMPA, Thiverval-Grignon) terrà un seminario dal titolo *Image analysis developements for plant tissues microstructure quantification* ABSTRACT: In a context of valorisation of plant products, such as food processing or biorefinery, it is often required to better understand the relationships between experimental condition and end-usage properties: mechanical properties, sensory texture, degradability... In order to know how the cellular structure or the tissue organisation impacts the final properties, adequate quantitative methods are required. We will present several methodological developments in the quantification of the microstructure of plant products from digital images acquired at different scales. For quantifying the 3D cellular structure of cells observed at microscopic scales, a stereological approach was developed, involving local discretization of geometric features from 3D binary images using Minkowski functionals formalism, and an estimation at the scale of the organ based on the Horvitz-Thomspon principle. Image texture analysis from mathematical morphology can be used to quantify cellular structure from grey-level macroscopy images. At a larger scale, the spatial organisation of tissues within the organ was described based on tools from spatial statistics. At each quantification scale, the question of the integration of image collection is adressed through the computation of statistical cartographies of the cellular morphology. Tutti gli interessati sono invitati a partecipare.

Seminario ANCHISI (RGS & Matematica Applicata)
by Giacomo Aletti 19 Jan '15

19 Jan '15

Con preghiera di diffusione tra tutti i possibili interessati, scusandomi per invii multipli. Cordialmente, Giacomo Aletti -------------- Nell'ambito dei Reading Group Seminars e del Seminario di Matematica Applicata, il giorno lunedì 26 Gennaio 2015, alle ore 14.30, nell'Aula Dottorato (primo piano) del Dipartimento di Matematica dell'Universita' degli Studi di Milano, Via C. Saldini, 50, Milano, "A Bayesian model of pain perception and its modulation" Davide ANCHISI, Dipartimento di Scienze Mediche e Biologiche, Università di Udine Abstract: While pain and pain modulation are most studied at the molecular and circuitry level, little is known about the logic and computational strategies underlying them. In the talk I'll describe a probabilistic model of pain inspired by those developed mainly in research on vision. The model can account for pain perception and for phenomena related to pain such as the placebo effect or the modulation of pain due to emotions, motivation and context. Moreover, the model makes novel predictions, confirmed by experimental findings. I will also discuss the relevance of a theoretical model not only in fitting the data and making new predictions but also for it's power to unveil what the nociceptive system is pursuing and why the modulation of pain occurs as it does (e.g. why there is a placebo effect) ================= Reading Group Seminars: The Reading Group Seminars (RGS) are organized within an open community of researchers interested in applying up to date mathematical modeling and data analysis approaches to the study of biological systems. The RGS take place at the Math. Department in Milan (via Saldini). Initiatives and updates are published on the website: http://rgs.mat.unimi.it/. ------------------------------- Giacomo Aletti, Associate Professor ADAMSS Centre (ex MIRIAM) Advanced Applied Mathematical and Statistical Sciences Department of Mathematics (www.matematica.unimi.it) Via Saldini, 50 20133 Milano, Italy

SUMMER SCHOOL ON COPULAS: change of dates
by Gianfausto Salvadori 16 Jan '15

16 Jan '15

Dear Colleagues, all interested people (especially PhD and Post-doc students) are kindly invited to attend the following INTERNATIONAL SUMMER SCHOOL ON COPULAS. *** PLEASE CIRCULATE THIS MAIL TO ALL INTERESTED PEOPLE. THANKS. *** For infos, feel free to contact "gianfausto.salvadori(a)unisalento.it" _________________________________________________________________ SUMMER SCHOOL ON COPULAS FOR HYDROLOGY AND ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCES Université de Pau et des Pays de l'Adour Pau, France, July 6-10, 2015 The Instructors are top scientists in the fields of Copulas and Environmental Applications. The international event is organized by the INTERNATIONAL COMMISSION ON STATISTICAL HYDROLOGY. For all participants, attendance certificates will be provided. *** SCOPE *** The statistical modeling of natural events frequently involves the modeling of the joint distribution of several random phenomena. Copulas are mathematical objects that are particularly suitable for modeling the multivariate dependence between several continuous random variables, independently of their marginal distributions. This explains why they are more and more often used in hydrology and environmental sciences. With the development of powerful statistical software (such as the R statistical system), a multivariate analysis based on copulas appears increasingly feasible. This one-week short course will focus on the theory and statistical practice of copulas with applications to hydrological problems and related environmental issues. It will also contain an introduction to multivariate extreme-value theory from a copula perspective. Theoretical concepts will be illustrated through the analysis of real-world datasets using the R statistical system. *** VENUE *** Université de Pau et des Pays de l'Adour. Pau, France, July 6-10, 2015 *** WEB SITE *** http://lma-umr5142.univ-pau.fr/copula/ ____________________________________________________ Gianfausto SALVADORI ____________________________________________________ Università del Salento Dipartimento di Matematica e Fisica "E.
